.. My, my. This certainly isn't what I expected. I can only assume that you had no choice in the matter, Ma--

Marie? .. This is an interesting predicament. Why do I suddenly feel much calmer? 'Nowhere left to run'--well, now, what a confident statement.

Welcome to Discedo, pal.

[polymorphically]

'Welcome to Discedo'--what a paradox. I appreciate the warm welcome, regardless.

[onceahuman]

What's your name, pal?

[polymorphically]

Stein. Your own, miss? ♥

[onceahuman]

The name is Mona Lisa.

[polymorphically]

What a lovely name! Any relation to the infamous un-smiler?

[onceahuman]

Un-smiler...?

[polymorphically]

Goodness, yes. I don't think they ever decided whether she was smiling or not.

[onceahuman]

Oh! You mean the painting... First time I've heard her be called that. Yeah, just like her, even if we don't really look anything alike.

[polymorphically]

I must admit, you seem a great deal more sociable.

[onceahuman]

Thanks! I've always tried to be. You're pretty talkative yourself.

[polymorphically]

I'm lacking my comrades; it's uncharacteristic of me to be so jabber-jaw'd, I'd say, but if I'm to meet new people, it's what has to be done.

[onceahuman]

I don't mind making new friends here. Makes it such less, if you ask me.

[polymorphically]

Though I do hope you're prepared to give them up when someone finds a way out of this hellhole. ♪

[onceahuman]

It's happened before, more times than I'm comfortable with. Preparing myself for the loss is... all I can really do.

[polymorphically]

It's a very useful skill to have, miss Mona Lisa, but don't let the worry ruin your smile.
